Disneyland California Adventure

Explore the thrills and excitement of Disneyland's neighbor, California Adventure Park. Home to 8 unique lands, the Park showcases the beauty of the Golden State, from the iconic Golden Gate Bridge to the glamorous Hollywood Sign. Attractions include latest additions Buena Vista Street and Cars Land, inspired by the creativity of Pixar's action feature films. Little ones won't soon forget dining with Disney princesses at Ariel's Grotto, and thrill-seekers should definitely ride the wonky elevator at the Tower of Terror.

Ariel’s Grotto

Let Princess Ariel introduce you to some of her royal friends as you enjoy a scrumptious brunch or luncheon. Just look for the beautiful, spiraling seashell tower rising above Paradise Pier. Guests enjoy photo opportunities with the plucky mermaid, Belle, Aurora, Cinderella, and other favorite Disney heroines.

Popular Attractions

Mickey’s Fun Wheel rotates gently in the sky, lit up after the sun goes down by countless colorful light bulbs. Climb into one of its gondolas for spectacular views of the Park. It’s a fun attraction for every age. For those who want something frightfully daring, head to the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror in Hollywood Land. The elevators of this abandoned “hotel” are still in operation, but watch out - they’ve been known to freefall!
